There are several people that tow with the Tahoe. Most don't post on here because they get beat up about how unsafe they are. I have no problem with my Tahoe/Trailer setup other than I would like a little more power. But, it's just me, the wife and dog (about 350# total) and we only carry 500 to 600 pounds in the trailer which gives me a total trailer weight of about 6500#. I am within all of my weight ratings including the receiver hitch as I only have about 700# of tongue weight.
With your larger family you may find it hard to keep the weight down.
In my opinion, it all about the hitch. Do not get a friction sway control hitch. You will need a good hitch. I think my Husky Centerline hitch is middle of the road but does a good job after I got it set up correctly. It took three adjustments and a couple of trips to the scales to get it right.
